A little tip on these kind of Kawasaki carburetors; the float and needle valve from a Briggs push mower (with the float type carb) will fit into these and work perfect if you happen to need one. The float will need just a very little shaved off with a razor knife where it fits in between the two pedestals that hold the float. If you go buy a Kawasaki float they are around $30 and the needle valve is $15 or so.
My 42in exmark was running horrible. I watched your video and fixed it right up. Took me about an hour to remove carb clean out with carb clean spray and air. Started after three pulls. Now it starts first pull and runs like new. Thank you for the help and prayers for your family.
Thanks guy, you saved my life.
I was unable to find the disassebling procedure and didn't want to ruin the gaskets doing something wrong.
Thank You for the video, my Xmark with this motor would start but choke down like it was out of gas or had water in the gas. I watched your video within a few minutes found my problem, the choke was closed , I opened it with my finger and lubricated it. Runs like a champ!
I have one on a Old wheel horse i was always impressed with the engine and the pressure lubrication. Praying for you
Just got this model for 300.00.. clearly carb issues..will teardown and clean.. Awesome Video.. hope your boy is doing better... prayers for your family..
Runs great! Nice machine! prayers for your little boy.
Thanks!
Great to see that inplix has new instructions to save my money and energy to build it.
Awesome video, great job. Your little guy is in my prayers.
Thanks Craig!

Good and thorough job of cleaning this carb. My JD 160 uses this engine.
It took me 2 hr your video helped thank you.
Awesome video, thank you. Very helpful.
Nice video - Your son is in my prayers. Blessings.
Huge help thanks!
This is pretty important routine maintenance,...especially for any "newly purchased - older machines".
Thanks for your advice. Much appreciated!
Great video bud. Hope all is well
Glad to hear that Bobby's test results seem to be good.
Thanks, me too!
Nice...looks like a solid mower.
It is a nice mower. Personally, I prefer ride-on zero turns. Thanks for watching.
It's alive !!!! Great video keep them coming on the metro also still praying for bobby
One or 2 more videos on this thing coming.
This helps greatly! Thanks! I hope your son is doing well.
Great job.

God Bless you and your Family.
very helpful in cleaning jets on my FB460v, HOWEVER i will need a float volve (torpedo shape) and an air filter. the link didnt conect to a parts store that had the parts. any sugestions? Thank and good luck Bobby
Loved this video and watched it many times to learn about my carburetor on my machine. I cleaned the heck out of my carb just as you did but had no luck with hard starting problem so I bought a new carb and still having problems. The only way I can start my mower is with starting fluid.
What confuses me is that when the machine is in the "choke" position, both of the butterfly valves inside the carb are in the closed position. Is this right? This seems very peculiar to me as I don't understand how the gas can ever get to the spark plug when both valves are closed? I am an amateur do-it-your-selfer so any advice you can provide would be appreciated. Also, prayers that your boy is doing fine.
I rebuilt the carburetor on my fb460v run well but idles very rough. Can you explain how to adjust the carb at idle and fast speed???
That breather look like the one on my John Deere Z-445 zero turn mower. I assume the carburetor is about the same also. I am afraid that I will have to take it off and clean it since the mower only runs when you put fuel in the carburetor then stops when the fuel is burned up.
Hey brother, I'm having trouble finding the right recoil starter for that engine is it possible if you could take those 4 screws off the shell and show me it. The connection between the motor and the starter is confusing in the manual. Thanks.
Good project while inlaws are there. I have a dr brush mower about 30 years old. Need info on this carb.
I have that exact mower. Any good ways to adjust that steering? I have tried adjusting the rods to match and it’s not really working. Any input would be great.
what year is that lawn mower? I have the same one.my spindle shaft just broke
Double wide I have the same machine only belt driven. Do you have any schematics of the carb. There is a white looking plastic piece with a black fuel like line that goes in the backside of the carb by the linkages. Also there were some other tube like things that were not on my carb. I'm just trying to see what mine is missing and if a standard carb kit will come with that
so sorry to hear about your son
Great video. I feel like a lot of these issues with small engines and the gunked up carbs is largely due to the levels of ethanol in our fuel. The oil industry conspired with the gov to include 10-15% of ethanol in our "blended fuel". This bit of ethanol of course dilutes the fuel you pay for, gives you worse economy and wreaks havoc on small engines and carburetors. I would highly recommend folks find a pump that sells ethanol free fuel or remove the ethanol yourself. Look up the method on youtube, its very easy to do and there are a lot of examples available on youtube. It's truly a shame that the gov would pay more to framers to grow more corn to use in ethanol despite them knowing that it pollutes more and causes fuel system damage.
Yup. Thank Iowa, the Pres. primarys and Archer Daniels Midland lobbyists. As it absorbs moisture, it wreaks havoc with outboard motors too.
There is one more removable main jet that you didnt get out below the two that you did remove . Best to have a screwdriver that just goes down the treaded hole with little play for it. Skimpy slot material .
Hi I’m having an issue with my fb460v 12.5 hp engine . Have spark , fuel , and compression and I can get it running but at full throttle it basically is popcorning at half throttle . Any suggestions?
The fb460v on my gravely is having issues
it sucks you can buy these carburetors anymore do they sell an after-market one
I have the same motor I need tips on getting it runnung
came to figure out my carb.. got all sappy about your kid.. hope he's doing ok!
I know this is years ago but I have a HUGE favor: I have the same mower but the data is distorted so I can’t get parts for it because I don’t have a model or a serial number. Can you tell me what the model is and if any chance a serial number? Greatly appreciated.
thanks for the video where can I find the carb. kit for that engine?
Jack's small engines
One of the last flatheads.
Are you going to repaint the mower?
No, I will let the next guy.
Smart man. Painting is no fun unless you have a sprayer.
Hope your son is doing better man! Also, was wondering if you would consider selling this little mower? If so how much?
i know this is an old post 3 yrs old but i have one of these mowers that has been sitting for several years . Im cleaning the carb and gas lines and new oil and just going through it to get it running again. But i am interested in selling it if you by chance are still interested in one. thanks .
It s a 12.5 horsepower
I was hoping you were gonna explain the screw on the fuel bowl :(
It is just a drain.
Por que el motor fc420v kawasaki no tiene suficiente chispa para prender el motor
Alguien me puede ayudar
Did this and now mine won't stop running rich. So rich I can't run it unless it's on full throttle and it won't run past an idle.
How is your son
Looks like this guy has not done this carb before. He kept turning and turning the idle jet which is a slip fit. He needs to read the repair manual before making a video. What a joke.
